I don’t think this is true. This must some creative work using photoshop.

Sorry people, but this is fake…
Jarle S. from Norway
I think it’s fake also , anyway thanks for sharing
how to prove if this is fake?
any idea?
it look fake to me.. but haven’t found any prove about it..
It’s fake. Look at the scale! See pic 1 showing ‘the man’ is about 10cm. Then, pic 3 shows ‘the man’ is about a size of two palms (may be ladies hand). But, two palms size is definitely more than 10cm… at least 20cm!
Fake.
That’s not centimetre, it’s inch!!! Look at the divider in the ruler. So two palm sizes of human hand that’s mean about 10 inch or 25 cm.
Maybe it’s a fairy’s corpse…
It’s unbelievable! I think it’s a hand-made one or something like that
guys, i think this is real. look at the skeleton, so real and complete not mention the hair. even the skull, everything so real. by the way, the police evidence plastic bags tell you that is true. no joke. fairy tales. but where they found it?.
It looks like a dog
Fake or Not, these are very interesting pics, but the first two photos the head looks like an alien and the rest of the pics are more convincing looking like a corpse. I would really like to know more about these pics. I agree with Bari about a possible fairy’s corpse, if they are real!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s fake - the wings are skeleton leaves - can be purchased from most craft stores, the body is made of paper mache or a similar substance. The skeleton is made of wood (in fact, the arm bones look like match sticks), and the hair is probably clipped from the very clever and talented doll artist who made this.
its looks like a fairy! not a Butterfly-man!
if its fake, the artist has done a recommendable job… it looks quite real.
This is amazing! I am a 100% absolute believer in Fairies, Faes, Pixies, and any other name you choose to call them by. It may be the Irish in me but I know they are real and have some stories of my own regarding them. However, this looks scary-close to a real corpse and I support and believe it is real! I am amazed, and would love anymore info on it. I love the study of them and always jump at the opertunity to learn more. Thank you.

In magic she shimmers.
Delicious soft whispers,
Come hither, come hither!
Dark enchantress, wicked delight,
A sentry to lure in mortals by night.
To come away, come away,
Dash softly hand in hand
Slip through the veil
Off to fairy land.”*~*~

this is amazing…i agree with Nelle. this is so real. and yes, Fairies are real.
This is a fake!

Comments: BBC News has confirmed that the images and text above were created as an April Fools prank by Dan Baines, whose job is designing “strange and unique” illusions for stage magicians. The story of the mummified fairy’s discovery was first posted in March 2007 on Baines’ Website , Lebanon Circle Magic Company: http://www.lebanoncircle.co.uk/ where it attracted as many as 20,000 hits in a single day. After confessing to the hoax he sold the fake artifact on eBay for £280. Many people, he says, continue to insist it’s real.
The prank calls to mind the infamous Cottingley Fairies hoax of 1917, wherein a pair of young British girls with too much time on their hands concocted fake photographs of tiny, humanoid fairies flitting through the air. The photos were vetted as authentic by none other than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the Sherlock Holmes series, and received an inordinate amount of publicity from a credulous press. It wasn’t until 66 years later, in 1983, that one of the girls confessed that the fairy images had been hand-drawn and suspended in the air via hatpins to be photographed.
Gaff art
Baines’ work is an outstanding example of what is called “gaff art,” the use of taxidermy and prop-building techniques to create realistic-looking sideshow artifacts. One famous example was P.T. Barnum’s half-ape, half-fish Feejee Mermaid: http://chnm.gmu.edu/lostmuseum/lm/41/, which astonished visitors to his American Museum in the mid-1800s. More recent examples, such as Juan Cabana’s “Golden Mermaid” carcass: http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_merman_carcass.htm, have won fame and infamy thanks to images circulated via the Internet.
Thanks Max for the comment.. now we know this really just a hoax
I as well read about it being a hoax, but could you imagine any type of government letting this type of information leak out? No.
…man … it’s fake!
Hey man wt# is it! …. unbeilevable! … i have no worlds to discribe it! … in my opinion it’s not tru! .. i belive only if see whit my eyes!
it looks man made very nice! good detail, what gives it away is that the wings are obviously leaves that are slightly decomposed and spray painted or something.
